I feel like I have a new back! My massage therapist, Jali, used amazing technique to get deep into my muscles and work out knots that had been there for months. The space is quiet, peaceful & beautiful. Even the receptionist was delightful. Great energy across the board. I will definitely be back! read more

Great experience! Booked a 60 minute massage for my husband and I. The staff was extremely friendly and the atmosphere was clean and relaxing as soon as you enter the room. The massage itself was wonderful, and the communication was easy when it came to adjusting the pressure if needed. The only advice I would give is there is a pin needed upon entering the establishment, so make sure to get there a few minutes in advance. Overall a great experience and I would certainly return, thank you! read more

PRESS Modern Massage - Williamsburg - Massage Therapy Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

HOLY MACANOLI!!! I can not believe how PHENOMENAL this massage was from KURT! I came in with my body feeling like a rock and I'm putty right now. I know some people complain about pricing with everything going up but Kurt is worth every penny!!! In all seriousness Kurt is very communicative which I love because checks in with the pressure and how comfortable you feel overall. I can tell he has years of experience doing this just his awareness to my aches in certain places but I find massue therapist who have a lot of experience lose their presence in the room, they become robotic. Kurt was the complete opposite he was so present his energy, his care and attention detail was beyond professional. He genuinely cares about his craft and boyeeeee does it come through! I'm so excited to come back! Thank you KURT!!! read more

I just had a great massage with Krystina. Hands down one of the best massages of my life. She made me feel extremely comfortable and really worked all the areas that needed attention to relieve my tension. She even gave me tips on what to do at home when I'm in between treatments. Will definitely be going back and highly recommend. read more

KURT, KURT, KURT! He is the BEST! I almost don't want to write this review because I need him to have slots open but when something is soooooo amazing I believe you have to share it with the world! Massue's claim to know all the pressure points but Kurt has to be a MASTER at it. His massage and energy is sooo healing. I truly feel so luckily to have him work on me. read more

I'm a part time dancer so I get massages about once a month. This time I wanted to see if there was anything closer to me where I lived and man, am I glad I found this place. What initially caught my attention was the beautiful aesthetics as well as mentioning that they have experience on athletes. I got the full body massage from Jali and it was great! I felt so relaxed that I even fell asleep (which honestly should be the norm at every massage parlor but strangely is not). I'll definitely be back! read more

PRESS is literally the BEST! I have been a long time supporter and truly appreciate the 5star team they have built. Kurt , Ryan D, Ryan LG are therapeutic masterminds and Brooklyns best kept secret. Staff is incredibly kind and always willing to go the extra mile. This place is hands down the BEST read more

A clean, welcoming environment with masseuses that listen to areas that need extra attention. My appointment with Josh started off with him assessing where I had extra tension. He checked in throughout to make sure that I was comfortable and that the pressure was right. Would definitely recommend and will be back! read more

I've been getting massages consistenly for nearly 20 years now and have gone everywhere from luxury spas to Chinatown hole-in-the-walls, but the massage I just got at Press might be the best one yet. Ryan LG was an absolute pro from beginning to end. He started by asking me what sort of issues I was having and what I was currently doing to treat them, and impressed me off the bat with his knowledge. I appreciated that Press has private rooms, heated tables, relaxing music, and a receptionist. The 90-minute massage was pure bliss. Ryan specializes in myofascial release and I feel like a new woman walking out of there. I will absolutely be going back here on a regular basis! read more

I just had one of the best massages of my life. Ryan LG is a thoughtful genius. My 90 minute massage focused on overall well being while tending to some very tense areas. I love Press Modern because the therapists have a keen knowledge of anatomy and everyone has a different style. Ryan LG was very thoughtful and focused on personalizing the session. He even left me with some great self massage exercises to do at home. I can't recommend him enough. read more

The folks at PRESS do much more than just provide a great massage. They'll help answer your questions about your physiology, identify things you can choose to work on (or not) regarding posture, flexibility, strength, and other behavioral changes. My work requires sitting at a computer all day, and for all the value I got out of making changes like buying a sit-stand desk and forcing myself to take periodic breaks, a single session at PRESS was enough to teach me everything I needed to know about the right stretches to add into my routines. I couldn't have gotten that information from my own research; I needed PRESS to feel and identify the specific needs of back/shoulders/neck and all the way through the entire ergonomic chain I'm working on improving at my home office setup. You literally can't do better than this. Go. You deserve it. read more

I have had massages since I was 22 and across the world. WOW... 100% without a doubt, Jennifer at Press is the best massage therapist I have ever had - bar none. It wasn't just that I felt relaxed, but wow, I felt like my body had been transformed. She also really knows her anatomy and knows the science behind the human body. For me, I really like how she gets to stress points in unique ways that are more comfortable and less painful (compared with my previous massage therapists). This is the real deal if you want serious muscle loosening (calling all athletes). Oh and yes... great personalities and fun people work here. Two things to know. 1. I just moved to New York - massages are 50% more expensive (just like rent) because licensing in NY is insane 2. It is a bit hard to find at first... just follow the Google Maps and ring the buzzer. read more

I'm in between 3.5-4 stars for this location. I definitely was excited to come here for the first time because of all the great reviews. I actually had bought my mother in law a gift certificate for a massage for Christmas because of it. She has yet to use it so when my two year anniversary with my boyfriend arrived this month, I figured what better way to spend it? To relax and to let my mother in law know what she should expect! Pros: I appreciated the kind receptionist that scheduled my appointments and accommodated me. Social distancing was enforced as I waited outside to be buzzed in and everyone wore masks. The main reasons why I was there were addressed: my trapezius pain and lower back, I wish it was more addressed. My therapist was Christian who was polite and friendly. I really loved the heated massage bed and the serene music. Cons: I really feel like $130 for a standard massage is slightly high. I have no problem paying this price but for services that are truly worth it. I wanted to walk out of there and feel like I really got my money's worth. Just a little more love: some hot stones incorporated, a simple glass of champagne, etc. There were two things that weren't ideal for me during the massage: Christian spent like 15 minutes pressing on my rib cage on either side and performing breathing exercises. It was uncomfortable and I did communicate I was there for my back specifically so I was a little bummed that it took away from my 60 minutes. He also was pulling my legs, I'm assuming to stretch? But this was also uncomfortable and not asked for. I understand the whole "different strokes for different folks" but just wish it was different for my first time. The Williamsburg location is inside of a shared building and doesn't look like the Greenpoint one at all. It's just like random doors..even to use the bathroom was down the hall away from where we were being massaged. Atheistically it wasn't pleasing and not what I expected for the price. Lastly, it was a little weird that both masseuses stuck around while we tipped. It felt like I was forced to tip the 20% even though you should be tipping in regards to the service you received. In other words, I felt scared to choose to tip 18% with them hovering over me. Press Massage might not be for me but I guess I mean you can't fully find out until you experience it, right? read more

This was my first time at Press and I'm so pleased with my massage by Joseph.. He was professional, clam and made sure I was comfortable. Definitely recommend this spot for a little relaxing getaway from the busy streets of NYC. I absolutely will be returning :) read more

I've seen Anthony twice now for my back and neck. I'm a tattoo artist and after years of bad posture my back and neck are so tight and full of knots and I have nerve pain and numbness in areas. We've been doing deep tissue massages and Anthony knows the exact areas to work on my neck and back. 10/10 would recommend, I'm starting to finally be able to turn my head without pain and my back is getting less irritated at work. Super friendly and professional staff, I have no complaints! read more

I had the very best experience at Press, Williamsburg today. They have a lot of precautions in place for Covid and my massage therapist informed me on all when I first got there...it made me feel comfortable and I could fully relax for my massage. I also can't say enough about Patrina, she was so fantastic, really focused on the muscles I was looking to work on as a runner. She also gave me some insight on how to do some aftercare in between sessions. I can't recommend her enough. It was my first time visiting but will be back! read more

I have been getting massages for may years, I feel so lucky to have found a gem at Press. Sarah not only has golden hands (truly). She is a wonderful person and will be happy to communicate if you want to share any issues you may have so she may pay special attention to those areas. 90 minutes is well worth it to melt away the stress of the week. I see Sarah twice a month! Press is an beautiful and clean environment, I highly recommend. SARAH!! read more

PATRINA! She is a gem, I have been seeing her since before the pandemic and over the last year at Press. A great location in Williamsburg and always booking an appointment with Patrina and it's been a wonderful experience. I was even able to gift my friend a massage with her and she felt the same way about her- she is the best. Patrina is great at deep tissue and she really knows the body and can understand where you are holding tension, you will leave feeling like butter! Press has online booking so that is the easiest option for scheduling an appointment. read more

I just had my second massage with Diego and it was mind-blowing. His pressure is perfect- deep but somehow always comforting. His touch is intuitive and well-educated and he knows exactly where every issue that needs attention is. Truly one of the top 5 BEST massages I've ever gotten in my life- and that's from someone who's worked in the wellness industry for 20+ years and gotten and taught massage around the world! These massages left me feeling totally transformed. Get an appt. ASAP! But please leave me some spots too! :0 read more

Press has opened safely during COVID. The online scheduling and payment. Safety and cleanliness of the massage rooms. Jali wore a mask and goggles. I had been missing a massage - just when I needed one the most during the stress of 2020! Jali is the consummate professional and gives the best massages I have ever had. He gets right to the knots of the matter! The whole experience is 90 minutes of bliss, with a tinge of good pain! Worth every $$$ read more

I have been coming to Press Massage for a couple of years now. I always have a great experience and a high-quality massage. My favs so far are Carla, Michael and Malika. read more

I've gotten a massage from Jennifer 2x now and both times her perfect blend of personal connection and body know-how was exactly what I needed. Traditionally I'm someone who gets a massage as a last resort because the therapists don't know how to read my muscle tension and spend too long on parts that don't need work and I get physically irritated, but getting a massage from Jennifer is pure relaxation. I couldn't recommend her, or the sweet little studio, any more highly. 6/5 stars read more

Yelena is fantastic. She is incredibly knowledgable and was thoughtful about the bodywork. She took time after the massage to recommend some ongoing stretching I can do for problem areas. It was the first time a massage therapist had ever given me this depth of information following, and what she shared was informative and useful. It was my first time, and I was unsure about the alternating between Deep and Swedish (I typically hate deep tissue), but I quickly got used to it and think it's rather clever! read more

I went here to receive my first ever massage and I'm extremely glad I did so. The price for the deep massage for an hour is well worth it for how great you will feel afterwards. I highly recommend this place to anyone who's willing to feel like an entirely new being. read more

This place is just not good. I wouldn't suggest anyone in the neighborhood go here. Important you read what i experienced after going twice: 1) Way too expensive - it costs more than Great Jones Spa and...there's not even a shower. There's barely water. 2) Environment - I waited outside in the rain for 10 minutes trying to get buzzed in. Lady (my masseuse) was chilling at front desk. "Oh. I didn't hear anything." Nice way to start my attempt at relaxation. 3) Service - the first massage was one of the worst I've ever gotten. The second one, they sent me a text morning of to let me know they changed masseuses on me. I've never had that happen before. Super low quality and unprofessional. I'd strongly encourage people to go to the city OR just go to one of the super cheap (and legit) Asian places in Williamsburg. I've been there before. For $20, you get the same thing almost. read more

Having seen multiple therapists at this location, I can say that massages are consistently excellent. The therapists are knowledgable and talented, and the services are not to be mistaken for light work that one would get from a regular spa--this work is deep, focused, and healing. I'm pretty hard on my body, so I get 90 minute massages to give the therapists enough time to really get in there. I'm typically sore for a day or so afterwards, but that's to be expected from a deep tissue, medical massage. A hot epsom salt bath, plenty of water, and good rest afterwards usually does the trick. ;) The therapists are super receptive to feedback on more/less pressure, make sure you communicate with them so they know what you like/want. Each massage is tailored to you so the more you share, the better your experience will be! Side note: Gratuity is accepted in cash only but there is an ATM at the studio in case you forget! :) read more

Ashely is nothing short of amazing! This is my second massage with her, I used to get massages regularly throughout my life but took a break for a bit and now I'm so happy I found this place and Ashley. I now make appointments with her once a month! She's knowledgeable, professional, listens to your needs and is beyond friendly. Couldn't recommend her more! read more

I got to redeem a gift massage here as soon as the first lockdown let up. It was soooooo good! I've gotten a lot of massages & have grown rather picky. This place was AWESOME! Not only that but they take the virus seriously (not like the dentist I just tried taking my kid to ‍) I HIGHLY recommend going here if you afford it (or request your Xmas gift be from here!!) read more

Very clean, professional, and easy to book. Easy process throughout the session as well. Jen is probably one of the most professional, personable, and well informed therapists I've encountered. I've never left a massage with stretching tips, knowledge on how the different muscles perform and interact with the rest of the body, and general lifestyle/health suggestions. Excellent experience and perfect example of how going the extra mile sets you apart from the competition. read more

Yasu has been so amazing! She is so in tune with my body and what it needs. The staff has all been so nice and helpful. I have also felt very safe during these times. read more

Good customer service by the receptionist lady and a great massage by Sarah! Will be back.

A hidden gem! Very clean, quiet and comfortable. Highly recommended!!! Ryan is fantastic! read more

Good massages for great prices. Nothing fancy but great massages and well worth the money.

I had a 60 min prenatal massage here and I loved it so much I bought a package. I am 5 months pregnant and experiencing some back pain and sleeping discomfort. Patrina was so professional and compassionate; she listened to my gripes and actually demonstrated to me how I should be sleeping as well as gave me some tips on stretches after our session. The massage was excellent too! Patrina is my pregnancy fairy god mother! read more

I saw Sarah for a 60 minute deep tissue massage. She was a sweet girl who asked a few questions up front and went to work on my aching muscles. Very relaxing and enjoyable. I feel quite refreshed afterwards. I will definitely see her again. Highly recommend. read more

Press Williamsburg is awesome! I was there this past Friday for a massage. It was my birthday week and just wanted to finish it out with some pampering. The space is very serene and I was so comfortable with their COVID measures. I felt very safe. My massage therapist was Sarah and she was just awesome. I really felt like I was floating on air when I left. I highly recommend. I know I will definitely be back. read more

Clean, professional and pleasant environment. The staff is friendly and efficient. Will definitely go again.

Would definitely recommend Yelena! Can't wait for my next appointment. It was super quiet and relaxing but also effective

I went to a massage with Yelena a few weeks ago and she was amazing! She knew exactly which pressure points to hit for a release of deep tension, like one in my armpit for my chronic shoulder blade pain and in my mouth for my jaw(who knew?)and was completely plugged into the mind-body connection. Thank you for a wonderful therapeutic session! Note to management: It would be nice to have some sound machines next to reception or ask the receptionist to speak quietly because I could hear everything during my session. Thanks! read more

This was my second time here and I am very happy to have found this place. Scheduling is very easy via internet or phone. I have had neck stiffness for 6 months. Jali gave the most amazing massage. He found my knots and worked so thoroughly with them. It felt like good pain! He has a perfect pressure and works seamlessly. He also had a very kind and accommodating demeanor which made me feel totally relaxed. I am recommending him to everyone! read more
